Naturalizing aesthetics: Brain areas for aesthetic appraisal across sensory modalities (2011, unknown): “Finally, the anterior insula is situated directly medial to the frontal operculum (and is often confounded with it) and thus a brain area involved in vocalization, language syntax, and imitation (Ackermann and Riecker, 2004; Dronkers, 1996).”
A review and synthesis of the first 20 years of PET and fMRI studies of heard speech, spoken language and reading (2012, background): “…than articulatory planning was emphasized again following observations that left anterior insula activation was higher for overt than covert speech (Ackermann and Riecker, 2004; Shuster and Lemieux, 2005) and unaffected by the demands on motor planning (Shuster and Lemieux, 2005; Blank et al.,…”
Age of acquisition: its neural and computational mechanisms. (2007, background): “Results from early learners are represented in red-to-yellow color variations. and articulation (Ackermann & Riecker, 2004; Bates et al., 2003; Dronkers, 1996; Shuster & Lemieux, 2005).”
An fMRI investigation of syllable sequence production (2006, background): “Recently the role of the anterior insula in speech production has received great attention (Dronkers, 1996; Wise et al., 1999; Nagao et al., 1999; Ackermann and Riecker, 2004; Hillis et al., 2005).”
The image of time: A voxel-wise meta-analysis (2010, background): “, 2001); conversely, the right insula has been associated with melody, which may confer benefits during the timing of short intervals (Ackermann and Riecker, 2004).”
Conjoint activity of anterior insular and anterior cingulate cortex: awareness and response (2010, background): “of our theme of ACC–AIC interaction, it should also be noted that a number of studies of speech production in humans have highlighted the left AIC as being involved in the preparation and co-ordination of articulation and phonation (Blank et al. 2002; Ackermann and Riecker 2004; Riecker et al. 2005)”
Speech Production as State Feedback Control (2011, background): “…premotor cortex is functionally connected with a larger complex of structures including the insula, basal ganglia, and cerebellum – all of which also have the capability to integrate sensory feedback with motor output (Huang et al., 1991; Yeterian and Pandya, 1998; Ackermann and Riecker, 2004).”
Investigating emotion with music: An fMRI study (2006, background): “The superior insula has been considered a motor association area [Augustine, 1996], and particularly the left anterior superior insula has been suggested to support articulatory planning [Dronkers, 1996] and the coordination of vocal tract innervation [see Ackermann and Riecker, 2004, for a review].”
The Spatial and Temporal Signatures of Word Production Components: A Critical Update (2011, background): “, 2001; and more recently Ackermann and Riecker, 2004, for the absence of Broca’s area activation in direct comparisons of overt and covert responses). The somewhat indirect conclusion that Broca’s area is the most likely candidate area for syllabification has more recently been challenged for diffe”
Processing of auditory feedback in perisylvian and insular cortex (2024, background): “A large portion of the research on the human insula’s involvement in speech and language comes from lesion and functional imaging studies that posit a preparatory motor role for the insula in speech (Ackermann & Riecker, 2004; Dronkers, 1996; Mandelli et al., 2014).”
